Abstract

Each of three window navigation techniques --- scroll bars, zoom, and fisheye view --- were implemented in two versions: with animation (a gradual transition from one state to another was provided) and without animation. A highly significant effect of navigation technique, but not of animation, was found in the experiment reported in the paper.
